You have to use judgement on this. If a guy needs to help with cap space and he's a starter they usually restructure. But when a 10 year vet who's performance has fallen over the past several years is asked to take an 80% pay cut to an amount near the vet minimum, logic suggests they see him as a back up.
And most of us agree that DD is back-up quality at this point in his career. Now he's being talked about as the starter. This raises no eyebrows with you?
It does me.

Because Im telling you exactly why there is a discrepancy on the pass blocking data. One accounts for hits/hurries, and the other does not.

Stop with the red herrings.

Yes but regardless of the way they determine it, the object is to rate the O line's performance. One has them as the 3rd best pass blocking team in the league and the other has then at 20.
THEY decide what the criteria is based on their belief in its validity in determining the quality of the line.
YOU claim that these are the go to services for this, and yet they differ tremendously.

Well you find me another place that evaluates OL that is trustworthy and accurate. Until then, my sources will have to do.

As I said, both give the giants a top 5 run blocking grade.

What they give the OL in penalties or pass blocking or anything else, is irrelevant
